2015 U2 Tour News - delivered to Interference.com first and exclusively

Don't like the "Innocence and Experience" tour title much, too long, too pathetic and too much a William Blake rip-off. I'd prefer the "Volcano" tour.

According to these rumors, there seems to be a lot of information on North American residency shows but very few of European shows (Torino, Barcelona, Paris Bercy, that's basically it). I wonder if all the shows will be announced at the same time and tickets will go on sale for both legs?

I am Jack's complete lack of surprise

 

[rennowba]

If it is called the innocence and experience tour that must mean the SOE album will come out during the tour. I do prefer that title to the volcano tour if im honest

But... isn't that the point of having the albums titled Songs of Innocence and Songs of Experience?

 

[djerdap]

So the tour name is a rip-off, but the ALBUMS called like the William Blake book are... homage?

 

[prbiker15]

I believe the Innocence and Experience Tour was a tour name thrown around here. If true, I like it.

 

[nesquick]

Innocense and Experience Tour huh?


Well it can suit all taste...

Do you live here or is this just a vacation?

Neither, it's mainly hard work, to be honest. And so what, not a fan of that tour name IF true. I like short titles that aren't so complex.

[prbiker15]

What happened to Toronto?

 

[LUNEDEMINUIT]

What happened to Toronto?

They posted L.A. dates twice.So i asume one of them is for T.O which is 8 shows.

 

[rennowba]

Are the euro dates being announced tomorrow aswell?or is it just the american one's?

Could be 2015 shows will be all about SOI, while SOE gets its turn in 2016.

Did anyone really think Volcano tour was a serious name plan ?

 

[prbiker15]

I think they'll announce both legs.

Going back to the rumored ticket prices for Paris...maybe reserved seating tickets are from €106-€188.50, and GA is probably no more than €75, assuming the prices already include service fees.

Yep.... naming the Tour after the worst song on the album..... Gold Jerry Thant's Gold.

There goes my hopes of it being called the Reach Around Tour.

I still doubt they would announce anything until they see how B's recovery is. Why risk having a 360 repeat and end up rescheduling entire legs?

With the third leg obviously being named Donkey Punch

Because vocal chords are located in the throat, not the elbow.

Yeah, this. Plus the announcement IS happening tomorrow, so they must know if it is feasible. Bono will be ready enough (and he probably won't be 100% in his arm, but he doesn't have to be to sing and roam the stage...).

 

[LUNEDEMINUIT]

I'm surprise that Miami isn't part of that list of cities.Would have thought they would visit at least one in the south.

Yeah, I know that. He also had facial injuries. I just think it's a bit soon to hope for an announcement given that his accident was only two weeks ago. I was originally hoping they'd announce via the Fallon shows but that was before this happened. I just dont want a repeat of 360, is all. (I still have my E Lansing tix that say 2010 on them. )

So both Boston and NYC get shows even though they are a little under 4 hours apart. And Montreal and Boston are only about 6 hours apart. Yet, the majority of the southern half of the country (FL, TX, etc) will have to drive a minimum of 12-15+ hours to get to the nearest show? Doesn't that sound fishy to anyone else?

And for what it's worth, the last few tours were announced on Mondays...

*I have no personal information*

But I have heard similar itineraries from several people. Since they have different sources, I'm willing to bet this is close. The only other thing I have heard, from a couple of those people, is two shows in San Jose.

I think San Jose is possible, given that there might be a sizeable gap between the Vancouver and LA dates.

not for nothing... announcing the tour and putting tickets on sale in the middle of the christmas shopping season is pretty fucking annoying.

 

[nesquick]

january is better! With money from Santa.
